How are environmental certifications obtained?
Environmental certifications are certificates that certify a company's commitment to the environment. They are issued by accredited third-party entities that verify that the company meets the requirements of the certification.
The steps involved in obtaining certifications can be summarized as follows:
- calculation of the company's carbon footprint;
- definition of objectives and improvement actions to be put into practice;
- implementation of requirements:training of resources;
- internal evaluation by the company;
- evaluation by the accredited body to issue the certification;
- issuance of the certificate;
- maintenance and improvement of performance;
- annual evaluation by the body to maintain certification.
What certifications and initiatives are most in demand?
Here are some of the most sought-after certifications and initiatives for companies: PAS 2060, Ecovadis, ISO 14064, SBTi, CDP and Un Global Compact.
What is ISO 14064 certification?
Certification of compliance with ISO 14064 certifies that the calculation of an organization's overall carbon footprint within an annual fiscal year was done according to the national technical standard UNI EN ISO 14064. An ISO 14064 certification path involves not only the involvement of the entire business ecosystem for data and metadata collection, but also the inclusion of different partners for the development of technical documentation and its validation. For this reason, ISO 14064 certification is able to meet specific requirements of the regulatory matrix, but it may be less effective for communication purposes or for initiating strategic decarbonization pathways. It is advisable to undertake this path only for companies that start from a very good data base.
Who issues environmental certifications?
Environmental certifications are generally issued by accredited third-party bodies that verify compliance with requirements set by specific regulations.
How much does an environmental certification cost?
The cost varies depending on the certification you want to obtain or depending on the initiative you want to join. Some certifications require an initial investment on the part of the company, which can vary depending on the path it decides to take. Other programs and initiatives are free.
